Why Choose CohenMalad, LLP for Your Appeal?
An unfavorable ruling at trial can feel like the end of the road. But what if the court made a critical legal error? A trial outcome isn't always the final word on justice, especially when legal missteps or misinterpretations may have influenced the decision.
At CohenMalad, LLP, we understand that an appeal is more than just a legal procedure—it’s a crucial opportunity to correct errors and seek the just outcome you deserve, whether your original case involved Personal Injury, Class Actions, instances of Abuse, Family Law, Real Estate disputes, Business Litigation, or Medical Malpractice. When the stakes are high and a trial court's decision is in question, it’s imperative to have skilled appellate attorneys on your side to navigate the complex appeals process.
As your appellate counsel, we meticulously review trial records, identify pivotal legal errors, craft persuasive written briefs, and deliver compelling oral arguments to appellate courts. Our deep understanding across diverse practice areas ensures we can effectively challenge erroneous outcomes.
And, while overturning an adverse judgment is often the primary goal, a successful appeal can also clarify points of law, set important precedents, or lead to a more favorable settlement or retrial, ultimately striving for the justice you or your business initially sought.
Indianapolis Civil Appeals Lawyer
Whether you’re trying to hold on to a hard-fought legal victory or trying to turn the tide in your favor, an appeal can be a crucial part of your case, our Indianapolis appellate law lawyers can help.
Because the deadline to appeal in most courts is very short, thirty days or less, effective representation of a party appealing a judgment should begin the day judgment is entered, and perhaps even earlier. For parties resisting appeal, the representation should begin as soon as it becomes apparent that the other party is likely to appeal, which could be when judgment is entered, or when the other party files post-judgment motions indicating a likely appeal.
To guide you and your case through the often complex and difficult appellate arena, CohenMalad, LLP’s Business Litigation, Class Action, and appellate law attorneys combine to conduct the firm’s appellate practice. CohenMalad, LLP’s Indianapolis attorneys have more than 60 years of combined appellate experience and have handled more than 130 appeals.
